Orval Faubus sent troops to resist integration, and President Eisenhower sent troops to enforce it.
Central High School in Arkansas was the center of a desegregation battle following the Supreme Court decision of Brown v. Board of Education.
Faubus was the governor of Arkansas and had been supportive of liberal ideas up to the mid-1950's. He had appointed African Americans to government positions and had been a supporter of New Deal programs under FDR. However, desegregation upset his voting base and he was concerned about reelection. As a result, Faubus sent in the National Guard to prevent the integration of Central High School. Eisenhower responded with Army troops who escorted students into school amid protest.

The Supreme Court ruling found that the laws the Rangers and other law enforcement officers had been enforcing were unconstitutional and thus unlawful. As a result of this finding, Rangers were reorganized and became part of the Texas Department of Public Safety.
